Quicksticks Hockey Tournament - Friday 24 March
30th March 2017
On Friday 24 March our U8 and U9 mixed Hockey teams went to Dr Challoners High School for a Quicksticks Hockey Tournament. It was a qualifying tournament for the School Games Final at Stoke Mandeville Stadium. Both teams played all teams in a round robin format. Gateway’s first matches were very competitive against Gayhurst School. We got off to a good start with the second team winning their match and the first team ending in a draw. Both teams played exceptionally well working as a team to move the ball down the pitch and creating goal scoring opportunities. Gateway also played against each other which was a very close game. Both teams making excellent tackles and scoring a goal each. The first team were unlucky to have drawn 3 of their matches but Gateway 2 won all their matches apart from against Gateway 1 which made them the winners of the tournament and qualified for the School Games Final.
